Are you leaving the leafs or going links?

I would measure how far apart the leafs are and make sure the front driver's side leaf isn't going to want to sit in the middle of the pumpkin. Spencer's axle won't fix that either.

No leaf perch in the diff. Pretty much obligated to links.

outboarding springs is not uncommon, and fairly easy.  did it on my 8 with tons and leafs  1 tons under a 7 frame deserve some steal anyway for frame contacts....


hmm i guess if there is no perch from a coil truck that might be annoying, but possible.
